  1. Dear Grammarian,

    Can you give me an idea of future subjects for the Grammarian columns?

    I really enjoy your work! Everything is usually well outlined and carefully written…if I’m wrong don’t tell me.

    Dear Masked Master,

    Future subjects for The Grammarian Speaks will probably include common word confusions, punctuation errors, and spelling problems.

    If you would like to suggest a subject, please do!

    I’m glad that you like The Grammarian Speaks!

  3. Grammarian,

    I didn’t know that I could suggest a topic. That is really cool! I’ll try to think of something I have a problem with.

    How about the amount of adjectives you should use to describe a subject. Like is, “The big, brown, fuzzy, dog that lept, high and long, over the white, pointy, fence.” too many descriptive words? (that’s just a basic example.)

    Also, I am sure some of my punctuation is incorrect aswell. :D Doing a column on punctuation is a great idea! Besides me I know there are alot of people with that problem. One of my biggest problems is where to put the comma when you use words like: yet, but, then, and or.

    Masked Master,

    I look forward to more suggestions!

    For more information regarding the usage of adjectives, you might consider the column “Simple Eloquence,” Column Seven. I think this column addresses the issue.

    I will make my next column about comma usage. Thanks for the suggestion!

    The Grammarian.

  5. Grammarian,

    No, Thank You! :D

    I am looking forward to the next column!
